10           $q = Finance::Quote->new;

12           %info = Finance::Quote->fetch("ftfunds","<isin> ...");  # Only query FT.com using ISINs
13

DESCRIPTION

15       This module fetches information from the Financial Times Funds service,
16       http://funds.ft.com. There are over 47,000 UK Unit Trusts and OEICs
17       quoted, as well as many Offshore Funds and Exhange Traded Funds (ETFs).
18       It converts any funds quoted in GBX (pence) to GBP, dividing the price
19       by 100 in the process.
20
21       Funds are identified by their ISIN code, a 12 character alphanumeric
22       code.  Although the web site also allows searching by fund name, this
23       version of Finance::Quote::FTfunds only implements ISIN lookup. To
24       determine the ISIN for funds of interest to you, visit the funds.ft.com
25       site and use the flexible search facilities to identify the funds of
26       interest. The factsheet display for any given fund displays the ISIN
27       along with other useful information.
28
29       This module is loaded by default on a Finance::Quote object. It's also
30       possible to load it explicity by placing "ftfunds" in the argument list
31       to Finance::Quote->new().
32
33       Information obtained by this module may be covered by funds.ft.com
34       terms and conditions See http://funds.ft.com/ and http://ft.com for
35       details.
36
37   Stocks And Indices
38       This module provides both the "ftfunds" and "ukfunds" fetch methods for
39       fetching UK and Offshore Unit Trusts and OEICs prices and other
40       information from funds.ft.com. Please use the "ukfunds" fetch method if
41       you wish to have failover with future sources for UK and Offshore Unit
42       Trusts and OEICs - the author has plans to develop Finance::Quote
43       modules for the London Stock Exchange and Morningstar unit trust
44       services. Using the "ftfunds" method will guarantee that your
45       information only comes from the funds.ft.com website.
